I just got this in the mail today. I"m going to do the leak test today and see how it goes. The construction is top notch though. Most likely better than I could have done. I will continue to post here with updates on the leak testing. Hopefully I have only good news to report.

ya know you could use a .50 cent tupperware container and get some barbs from the hardware store..... OR.. you could make something out of fat pvc.. really neato stuff

joeyd · 09-20-2003, 04:36 PM

Yea i had one of my own design But this one fits into a bay and looks extremly nice. I'm going through the stage of changing my apartment from a 18year old - a 22 year old setup and when i have girls over i don't want tuparware on top of my pc with hoses out of it. I want everything to look as nice as i can.

winewood · 09-20-2003, 04:47 PM

Word to the wise.

Im married.

Girls could care less about what component goes into your computer.

But on another note, I know that I prefer it to look cool, and those designs are nice.

joeyd · 09-20-2003, 05:04 PM

THey do care when u are first trying to get them under the covers. They look at everything. They look at everything they can change about u and trust me they will hate that the pc is my main hobby.

BrianW · 09-20-2003, 05:23 PM

I just installed one. Note: I had to trim down the front part for it to fit flush with my front bezel. It was about 1/8" too wide. And Screw in the plugs as tight as possible.

winewood · 09-20-2003, 05:27 PM

ya know what they would dig?? A little shuttle case with a dainty little gerbil powered procs. I think I wanna figure out how to cool one of those baby's .. w/ tubes running out of it to a tool case or something. Chick magnet power with cooling technology.

Brian, kinda makes it hard to refill and add water to it doesnt it?

siavash_s_s · 09-20-2003, 08:16 PM

Not true! At least not completely true. Somewhere around here theres a girl with a watercooler and an acrylic case. I saw her at this lan party type thing at the dorms, but thats all I know

winewood · 09-20-2003, 09:59 PM

Sounds like a cross dresser... some dudes are really sick!

JokerCPoC · 09-21-2003, 03:37 PM

Naw, Ladies are into computers, Just not always the same as Guys from what I've seen.

TerraMex · 09-21-2003, 04:09 PM

Indeed.
They're more into The Sims.
We're more into shooting something that moves. Ok, if it doesn't move, even better.

That sounds like your sex life. Just replace shooting with mounting :-) (just playing but you left yourself wide open.

TerraMex · 09-21-2003, 06:30 PM

Well, you're not getting anything tonight. It's the couch for you mister.... and you can go play with youself.

j/k.

Did I mention she was playing Half life?

and there were a couple girls there playing UT2003.

Of course, thats 1 girl. The rest I spend a while trying to explain why you'd want to watercool your computer. Or why cooling it even matters at all. Then again I have to explain that to most guys too.

Boli · 09-21-2003, 10:47 PM

I find equating it to people who have a "car hobby" easier. Water cooling your computer is like getting one of those cars that have the engine sticking through the bonnet... i.e. looks damn impressive and serves a purpose.

joeyd · 09-21-2003, 11:43 PM

My ex was into computers . Not hardware though. She was a computer programer. 5'10 brunette , long black hair weighed 132lbs and was drop dead beautifull. She was 19 too. Awsome girl

Boli · 09-21-2003, 11:58 PM

Thus the "ex" I take it ;P

joeyd · 09-22-2003, 12:18 AM

we went out for 3 y ears and 3 days before x mas this year she broke up with me because she felt i wasn't moving anywhere fast enough. Its a shame i spend so much money on the ring. Wonder what would have happened if we made it to xmass and i gave her the ring

starbuck3733t · 09-22-2003, 09:18 AM

Ouch.

MMZ_TimeLord · 09-22-2003, 11:56 AM

My wife has her system and plays many games with me (computer games you sickos!

)

She joined me for many LAN parties before we were married.

I admit to being the one to introduce her to gaming, but she was hooked from day one!

She is loving everything I do with watercooling this system. She's bugging me now to get off my arse and build that purple acrylic case I designed for her.

Zogthetroll · 09-22-2003, 02:37 PM

*on topic* what is the wall thickness of that bay res? i was thinking of making one myself since i've got some leftover lexan & some acrylic weld. also, out of curiousity, what's with the four hose barbs? *off topic* i'm married also, my wife isn't into computers, but at least she tries to listen when i start rambling about my latest idea or brainstorm.
